I'm just lost here I've tried a little bit of everything, and rewatched Kenneth's video multiple times, but just cant seem to figure it out. I should probably add that quiz or test number one wasn't a problem it's number two where I just fall apart.

name = "Mikkel Bielefeldt"

Class instantiation uses function notation. Just pretend that the class object is a parameterless function that returns a new instance of the class. For example (assuming the above class):
x = MyClass()

me = Student()
Then print the name attribute of the instance.
print(me.name)
This should print "Mikkel Bielefeldt"
